Get A Life | ONC2023 Shortlist
While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.Terminé

FAMILY LEGACIES: PART 1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Before receiving her Hogwarts letter, 15-year-old Catherine Harris can barely remember having a place to call home. Now, Hogwarts is her home. But there's a mystery someone doesn't want them to solve. Professor Fig asks three of his seventh-year students to tutor Kitty to bring her up to speed- warlock Tae Jung, an expert in Herbology who will always stand up for their friends, knowledgeable Rosalinde Peverell, who despite her intimidating height is rather shy, and last but not least, the cunning Regina Black, a notorious duellist who always seems to get her way. And, despite all warnings from her best friend Violet, Kitty just can't seem to help falling for the charming but secretive Sebastian Sallow. Will Kitty and her new friends be able to work together, or will past conflicts continue to divide them? *I am not interested in commission art.

The Vampire and The Ghost | ✔︎
[BOOK ONE OF THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST SERIES] She's dead, he's undead. An unusual duo make their way through the modern world, and its modern challenges. Annalise Redwood had spent too much time alone, floating in a centuries old house. The very same house she was murdered in 5 years before. She'd watched people leave, come in, investigate and even squat in this house. Yet none of them stayed long. And more importantly none of them saw her. It was hell, and she swore she was cursed. But this all changes, on the 5th anniversary of her death when a seemingly normal young man walks in. And he sees her. Eugene Cubert was old. Too old. He was done with life, had lived, breathed (well not really) and seen too much for one soul to bare. Quite frankly all he wanted to do was find a nice house to live in and spend the rest of the century comfortably locked away from all of the supernatural and natural. He's visiting his 5th house that day, when he hears it. A woman, screaming to be seen. And then he sees her. And nothings quite the same after that. ---------------------------------------------------- #No.2 in paranormal 3/7/2021 #No.1 in ghost 9/7/2021 #No.8 in murder 2/8/2021 Updates weekly!

Flickering Creatures | ONC 2024 Longlist | ✔︎
When Bryony -- herbalist extraordinaire -- goes missing, Bella knows one suspect stands above the rest. The village's aspiring second witch, Daphne, comes from a family that's tried to take Bryony down before, and Daphne seems determined to carry on that legacy. For someone who's always been terrified of Bryony, she's a little too keen on looking into the disappearance. There's just one problem. Bella's insufferable fellow familiar thinks the kid is innocent... and he's been right about worse things before. If Daphne herself is to be believed, clues on the disappearance lead a whole lot closer to home than Bella would like. As the evidence mounts, Bella must choose to either stand by her values and the woman who raised her, or seek what might be a truth she would rather not uncover. Prompt #81: The town's witch has gone missing and no one is looking for her but her two familiars - a crow and a black cat, plus the teen who has always been scared of her. ❖❖❖ Written for Wattpad's 2024 Open Novella Contest.

The Naked Ghost
A beautifully restored Victorian house holds a secret: a lingering, well-dressed ghost. The new female owner learns of this before signing the contract, yet dismisses the warning - charmed by the house and skeptical of spirits. Soon after moving in, the sounds of furniture scraping across the floor downstairs awakes her in the night. When she investigates, the noises stop the instant her foot touches the top of the staircase, leaving her frustrated and unnerved. Then comes the night the sounds fall silent, and a shadowy silhouette appears at her bedroom window. It reaches toward her, yet any movement or attempt to respond makes it vanish. Desperate for guidance, she calls her best friend, a mystic, and together they seek a way to rid the house of its spectral inhabitant. Complications arise, however, when an unexpected bond develops between the ghost and the owner. Her friend intervenes by proposing a method to banish the spirit. In the process, the question arises of where spirits get their ghostly wardrobes. Torn between both her desire and the need to reclaim her home, she faces a choice that will test her heart, her perceptions, and her courage.Terminé
